The suspect said she established link with some Pakistani drug traffickers who sponsored her trip in collaboration with some local accomplices. Juliet added:
“I’m a single mother and I need money to take care of myself and child. I used to sell clothes but the profit is inadequate to sustain my family. I would have earned half a million naira to pay for my rent and my child’s school fees if I had succeeded in bringing the drug. They paid for my return ticket and hotel accommodation. While in my hotel room, a Pakistani woman came to give me the drug. She also instructed me to conceal it in my private part to avoid arrest. Unfortunately, the NDLEA officers detected it.”The drugs concealed are 430 grammes. The NDLEA commander at the Lagos airport, Hamza Umar, while commenting, said the arrest was facilitated with the aid of scanning machines. Umar said:
“During the inward screening of Emirate passengers, one Aladi Onyinye Juliet tested positive for narcotic ingestion. While under observation, the drug was subsequently expelled, field-tested and weighed.”Source: The Eagle Online
